Broken Image.
Anyway, that's a great figure :thumbup:

I've pretty much toned down my DB/Z purchases as of late, biggest priority is owning Z (waiting for FUNi to finish releasing the BD's). Then might hunt down Kai parts 1-4, if Viz don't release the rest of the full colour I guess I'd start collecting either the 3-in-1's or VizBigs.

Here's what I just bought: Battle of Z - Xbox 360's Goku Edition
I'm not sure if I'll keep the game or trade it (for Amazon credit) since all the gaming I do nowadays is on my Wii U (loving Rayman Legends with the Mario costume!).

It's a crime that collector's edition never came to the states.

There's no version of Volume 1 of Dragon Ball by Viz completely uncut.

Good point. "Uncut as it gets for Viz" :lol:

I wish there were a complete guide showing whats cut.

I think that is a censored edition. The most uncensored volumes had the old VIZ eye logo.

You can still purchase the figure itself which is this one: http://www.amazon.com/Dragonball-Master ... B00EKQABPE

The only thing that differs is the packaging and the dev's booklet of the game.

This is what has been keeping me from purchasing Dragon Ball manga, I want to own it uncut and in English but it's hard to seeing how there isn't such a thing. Here's hoping Viz will do another release of Dragon Ball manga but this time uncut and with high quality paper.

In something like the VIzbigs, which is not even the most uncensored edition, not counting with the various Mr. Popo panels, there are like 12 or 15 altered panels in all the 42 volumes of Dragon Ball manga, and most are so well done that you wouldn't notice them if you didn't already knew about them and hardly none changes anything of any importance (nudity and such).

I don't know about you but that's something so small, so unimportant, that I don't really don't care and I certainly would not let it stop me from buying the manga if I think its a good release otherwise.

I'm buying them too, But besides Popo what is cut in the new 3-in-1's (besides Vol. 1).

Whats censored from the least edited vol. 1 and 2?

From Vol.1 probably just the nipples from that woman that Oolong imagined in the chapters where he first appeared. Vol. 2 probably is completely uncensored in the least edited version.

Thats what I thought, not too bad. I'll check the 3-in-1 if they ever reprint it.

Got Vol. 3 today! And I'm done will he next 3-in-1

I'm pretty sure the first printing of Dragon Ball Vol. 1 (the white cover) was uncut. I'm almost 100% sure of it. It all went downhill after a mother bought a Dragon Ball 3-pack of comics for her son in Toys R Us, and well... the rest is history... Before that point though, it seemed the manga was "under the radar" in America, so to speak.

Can you post a source on that toys r us thing? Sorry for being kinda off topic but it sounds interesting!

Anyway I'm thinking of buying the 3 uncut "ocean dub" movies!

I really like the fact that is credits the Japanese voice cast on the back of the cover. :D

I couldn't find any news articles on it from back in the day. The best I can do is link you to a topic where it came up again 8 years ago. Just remember, please don't reply in that thread. :D

Ah thanks for the info, I absolutely despise censorship, it's so annoying that I can't get the entire Dragon Ball Manga in English uncut, the only way I can think of is to purchase the original Japanese prints and buy the Viz prints for the translation but I don't have the kind of money to buy the entire manga twice :lol:

Scanlations would never work either since I love holding a manga in my hand and scanlations are usually poor quality lol.

Yup there was a 13+ one and an E-for everyone version. The later printings of the red covers (the ones pictured) seem to be the same as the 13+ white cover ones.

Left: Red Cover single Right: 3-in-1 edited misprit

Vol. 1 also has all the nudity and some both have mild cursing that was changed.
